With the launch of Godly Land, Future Biology entered the medical industry, and Future Heavy Industrial's first MIX1 battery production line went into production, Jiang Chen clearly felt that Future Group's development had entered a bottleneck period.
Any company that was evolving into a large group would more or less face similar situations. The reasons could come from many aspects, such as anti-trust investigations, or complacency with the status quo that caused the company to neglect technological updates and eventually lose market competitiveness. The former represented the split Morgan Group and the nearly split Microsoft. The latter represented Digital Equipment (the second largest information system company in the 1980s after IBM) that was acquired by Compaq.
Fortunately, Future Group didn't have these two shackles that restricted 80% of the world's companies from evolving into a conglomerate that could influence the world economy. Because Xin would never launch an anti-trust investigation on Future Group since Future Group was built on technology.
But the bottleneck still existed.
And the most critical factor that led to the bottleneck was the lack of manpower!
For a long time, Future Group's talent source relied on the international headhunting market as well as the recruitment of regional subsidiaries. But the talent from the international headhunting market was highly mobile, and it was difficult to determine their safety. Only the few that could be confirmed could be entrusted with heavy responsibilities. Most of the talented people with ability but without a clean background, even if the headhunting company strongly recommended them, Jiang Chen didn't dare to use them carelessly. This caused Future Group's talent source to be limited. Although there were new employees every day, it still couldn't keep up with the expansion speed of the subsidiaries around the world.
Especially management talents. Compared to technical talents, there was a huge lack of management talents, but the group's reserves were low, which was the most troubling part for Jiang Chen.
There were a lot of people willing to work at Future Group, but there weren't many people willing to migrate to Xin and work on Coro Island.
Xin had a large mobile population. During the peak tourist season, it could even exceed fifty thousand, but the permanent population was only thirty thousand. It was hard to imagine that a small country with an underdeveloped education level, a labor shortage, and a sluggish market could support such a large multinational group.
In fact, if Future Group developed in the country, perhaps these problems wouldn't exist today. But on the other hand, even if Future Group had a body of technology, it would be difficult to develop into the giant it is today …
It could only be said that leaving back then had its pros and cons.
Although Jiang Chen also invested in the construction of high schools, universities, and other educational facilities on Coro Island, and arranged for graduates from Coro Island's community college to enter the group for internship training, it was difficult to see results in a short period of time.
If Future Group wanted to grow faster, it must increase the attractiveness of Xin's immigrants, especially to the high-tech talents!
Perhaps that plan had to be brought forward.
But just as he was worrying about talent, Dr. Amos from the University of Ber sent an email to his personal email asking him to go to his lab.
…
Since Dr. Amos joined Future Group, he went into the lab Jiang Chen prepared for him and spent all day researching D + + programming technology and basic artificial intelligence databases. Later, he changed the front desk of the laboratory into a living room and the lounge into a bedroom. He didn't want the sea view mansion Jiang Chen gave him and turned it into a staff dormitory.
For him to bring his family to Xin, Jiang Chen naturally gave him a great deal of trust. After signing the confidentiality agreement, he handed over the advanced computer technology to him for research.
Now, he seemed to have some results.
Dr. Amos' lab was on the basement floor of Future Building. When Jiang Chen knocked on the door, it was Amos' daughter, the blonde loli, Milian, who opened the door for him.
She politely asked Jiang Chen to wait in the living room. The little girl with a blonde ponytail timidly ran into the room and called her father.
"Long time no see, Dr. Amos." Jiang Chen got up from the sofa and walked to Amos, who was wearing a plaid shirt and jeans.
"Take a seat, no need to be polite. Let me see the fridge … Coke, orange juice, and champagne, which one do you want?" Amos opened the fridge in the living room and said quickly.
It was obvious that he was very busy.
"Water is fine." Jiang Chen smiled. "I heard you have something to discuss with me?"
"That's right." Amos poured a glass of coke for himself and a glass of water for Jiang Chen. He sat down on the sofa and paused. "Do you remember the mission you gave me last year? I've basically mastered the programming language. It's incredible. The person who invented this programming language is a genius. And the basic artificial intelligence database … Can you let me meet their designers? "
When Jiang Chen heard Amos' words, he made a helpless expression.
Why was everyone's reaction the same? Be it Zhan Shujie, a Ph.D. in biology, or Kelvin, who was suing the aerospace industry, when these experts saw his new technology, the first thing they said was to meet the designer …
"Sorry, because of various reasons, I can't introduce you to the designers of these two technologies … But in a few years, you may have the opportunity to meet them."
To Jiang Chen's explanation, Amos was very understanding and didn't react as strongly as Zhan Shujie and Calvin.
"Confidentiality agreement? I understand … After all, the commercial value of these two technologies is huge, especially artificial intelligence. No, not just commercial value, if it's used in the military field- "
"It's already in use." Jiang Chen interrupted Amos' words and smiled. "But I hope you can keep it a secret."
Amos looked at Jiang Chen awkwardly, but he still finished his concerns. "… That will be a disaster for all of humanity."
"Your point of view is very similar to Hawking's, and I agree with your point of view." Jiang Chen leaned back on the sofa, took a sip of water, moistened his throat, and then said, "But I need to add that unrestrained artificial intelligence will be a disaster for humanity. Let's not talk about this. The purpose of you asking me to come is definitely not to talk about technical safety, right? "
Amos nodded. "Of course. As you know, I have a double doctorate in information technology and mechanical engineering. My main research areas are robots and artificial intelligence. "
Then, the doctor waved at Milian, who was timidly leaning against the living room door and peeking into the living room. The little loli obediently understood her father's meaning. She swung her golden ponytail and disappeared at the door. Not long after, she walked into the living room with her father's laptop.
"This is the robot I designed, as well as the supporting system program." Amos opened the laptop on the coffee table and habitually put on the anti-radiation glasses. He held the mouse and clicked on the robot icon on the desktop, then turned the computer to Jiang Chen.
"Housekeeping robot, using the basic artificial intelligence database and D + + programming technology. The main control program including the face, prop recognition, and motion system is about 12GB. This is the concept image … Have you seen the Super Marines? You can think of this as Big White who is good at housework. "
